Slenderbodies

Abby Diamond, Arielle Deem

Slenderbodies

The California-based duo met while attending university, and came together as a creative force 3 years later. The two wrote, recorded and produced their debut album “Sotto Voce” over the span of a month and 380 miles. The result was an emotionally impactful, sonically soft collection of songs, with intricate airy guitar work complemented by gentle vocals and present drums. With vivid imagery at the forefront of vocal waves, the Slenderbodies paints portraits of siren songs, sultry nights with foreign lovers, lost romance, and home.

Abby Diamond

ABBY DIAMOND IS...QUITE AN ENRAPTURED INDIVIDUAL, MOVED BY COLORS, DIVINE INTUITION, AND SOUND AS THE PERFECT EXPRESSION OF ESSENCE. A BACKGROUND OF LISTENING TO MOTOWN IN THE CAR EVERY DAY OF HER CHILDHOOD AND BEGINNING HER CAREER AS A JAZZ VOCALIST IN NEW ORLEANS HAVE SHAPED ABBY DIAMOND’S UNIQUE VOICE. PLAYING WITH DEEP RHYTHMIC POCKETS AND ELECTRONIC ELEMENTS, THIS VOCALIST, COMPOSER, AND PRODUCER IS A FORCE OF NATURE AND FEMININE POWER.
